Barcelona-based power metal frontrunners, Kilmara, have unleashed the music video for "Chances" from their upcoming studio album Journey To The Sun, slated for release on January 31 via ROAR! Coming as a CD jewel case, limited to 300 copies "Mediterranean Aura" marbled vinyl and digital streaming/download, the album pre-sale is now available here.
The band comments: "This is one of the most well-rounded tracks on the album, a roller coaster of music and emotions where we find the forcefulness of power metal with doubled guitars, more intimate and delicate parts and a chorus closer to melodic rock, once again accompanied by orchestrations and synthesizers from the ‘80s that give Kilmara a sound to continue exploring in the future."
On Journey To The Sun, Kilmara sounds more current, more powerful and heavier than ever, thanks to an excellent and careful production. With the aim set on finding the best and most current sound possible, Kilmara put the recording of the album in the hands of Carles Salse in his Sureau Studio, and they also teamed up with world-renowned and award-winning producer Seeb Levermann (Orden Ogan, Rhapsody Of Fire, Riot V). Conceptually, Journey To The Sun is set in the Arcade halls of the late '80s, where first loves, unbreakable friendships, rivalries, defeats and victory celebrations took place. Kilmara pick up the baton as heirs of the heroes of Power Metal and bring back the singer of the legendary and sorely missed swedish band Lost Horizon, Daniel Heiman, one of the best voices of the genre who will undoubtedly overwhelm you with his performance as a special guest on “Take Me Back”.
After the additions of Eric Killer, a real steamroller on drums, and guitarist, producer and composer Carles Salse, the band is renewed in every way and presents their new work Journey To The Sun, an adventure of epic proportions that transcends the limits explored up to this point by the band from Barcelona. With this new chapter in their career, Kilmara tells us about the power and strength that all human beings are capable of gathering when we are united by the same purpose. They also tell us about the struggle to discover the path to truth and freedom. All of this in a journey to the impossible, crossing borders beyond this very dimension to finally reach contact with the Sun.
